This is a thread series for the seasonal time trials that focuses on completing the challenges (i.e. beating the gold target times) with stock versions of the cars. This means that instead of maximizing your PP with upgrades and focusing on getting the fastest laps on the in-game leaderboard, you are attempting to complete the challenges with the bare minimum amount of 'car' and money-spent as is possible.

With the new more open ended format means that part of the challenge will be finding a stock car that has the lowest PP or lowest price depending on your view. It is also difficult to predict which types of tires a car will come with before purchasing.

Warning: Some of these challenges are getting to be extreme and should be approached with caution! :banghead:


In order to participate your car must be stock.

1) A stock car is essentially any car as it is when purchased from the dealership or won as a prize: it will have had no modifications, added parts, or adjustments done that affect how the car performs.
2) No oil changes are permitted: if you have had an oil change you must wait until the effects of the HP boost have been removed by driving over 300 km.
3) You must use the original tire type that came with the car, unless dirt or snow tires are required.
4) No changes to any “Car Settings” are permitted: they must ALL be left at their default values. [Note: cars that come with Fully Customizable Suspension that were purchased or won prior to patch 1.11 must have the suspension settings restored to default in order to be updated with the new stock suspension settings.]
5) No SRF or ASM is permitted: other “Driver Assists” are permitted.

Basically, the ONLY changes you may make to a car include: painting the car and changing a car’s racing number. Any other changes means your car is not stock.


Stock Seasonal Time Trials #32:

SRT Viper Super Lap: 1:10.000 - Matterhorn Dristelen - 600PP - SH

Race Car Super Lap: 1:30.000 - Laguna Seca - 500PP - RH


The Stock Seasonal Spreadsheet:
A few members have begun a leaderboard of sorts where individuals will be able to input their info into a public document. This is not so much a competition as a way to compare all sorts of data. At this point the data that is recorded for entries is as follows:

PP - Lap Time - Car (try to include manufacturer) - Tires - Drive - Power - Weight

Link to the GTP Stock Seasonal Spreadsheet:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kDEW2OWUxHfq9PTR4G4-HKXl3veLfq0sXhvwiPYMUGw/

Notes about the Spreadsheet:
Tabs will generally be ordered with the newest seasonal events at the left.
Gold times are ordered based first on PP (lowest PP at the top), and then lap time.
Bronze and Silver times are ordered based solely on lap time (fastest time at the top): these entries will be grayed out.
If you are comfortable with entering your info please do so.
Only create one entry per car for your best lap time for that car.
To add an empty line: right click (PC) on a gray row number box and select add a row above or below.
If you make a mistake or change something you did not mean to change hit undo once or a few times.
 
My times so far with a wheel and an automatic transmission:

600PP SRT Viper at Matterhorn Dristelen:
516PP – 1:10.721 – SRT Viper GTS ’02 – SH – FR – 448hp – 1569kg
534PP – 1:09.866 – SRT Viper SRT10 Coupe ’06 – SH FR – 508hp – 1565kg

@MadMax looks to have done it with the GTS ’02: I tried unsuccessfully to catch up to your ghost line. The starting position of this course is terrible because I tend to be going faster at the start line on second laps.


500PP Race Car at Laguna Seca:
474PP – 1:30.879 – Ferrari 250 GTO CN.3729GT ’62 – RH – FR – 295hp – 880kg [CS stock]
486PP – 1:32.930 – Alfa Romeo Giulia TZ2 yadda yadda ’65 – RH – FR – 168hp – 620kg
497PP – 1:28.196 – Lotus Elise Race Car ’96 – RH – MR – 173hp – 645kg

The Elise Race Car is too easy, but I do not own very many eligible cars.
 
500PP Race Car at Laguna Seca:

488PP - 1:29.783 - Mitsubishi CZ-3 Tarmac Rally Car - RH - 4WD - 314hp - 1200kg
483PP - 1:29.567 - Spoon S2000 Race Car '00 - RH - FR - 310hp - 1050kg

Loads of rally cars eligible. This could be fun.
 
600PP SRT Viper at Matterhorn Dristelen:
567PP – 1:09.383 – SRT Viper GTS '13 – SH FR – 649PS – 1530kg (Manual Transmission with clutch)
 
SRT Viper Super Lap: 1:10.000 - Matterhorn Dristelen - 600PP - SH
507PP - 1:11.700 - Viper GTS '99 - SH - FR - 448bhp - 1569kg
516PP - 1:09.946 - Viper GTS '02 - SH - FR - 448bhp - 1569kg (has much better suspension -> more grip than what the '99 has , lap2)

Race Car Super Lap: 1:30.000 - Laguna Seca - 500PP - RH

433PP - 1:36.302 - MUGEN MOTUL CIVIC Si'87 - RH - FF - 221bhp - 890kg
440PP - 1:33.496 - Nissan 240RS Rally Car '85 - RH - FR - 235bhp - 970kg
442PP - 1:32.537 - CR-Z Touring Car - RH - FF - 199bhp - 910kg
443PP - 1:33.337 - PRIUS Touring Car - RH - FF - 201bhp - 1035kg
464PP - 1:31.999 - Mazda Roadster Touring Car - RH - FR - 205bhp - 795kg
464PP - 1:30.790 - Lexus IS 200 GT-1 '04 - RH - FR - 277bhp - 1010kg (aliens could possibly get gold with this car)
465PP - 1:29.678 - Renaultsport Lutecia R.S. Trophy V6 24V '00 - RH - MR - 293bhp - 1150kg
477PP - 1:34.413 - Opera Performance S2000 '04 - SH - FR - 270bhp - 930kg



 
Matterhorn:

SRT Viper GTS R Concept '00 (551PP, 498HP, 1,475kg) ~ 1:09.912

Laguna Seca:

Nissan C-WEST RAZO SILVIA '01 (490PP, 295HP, 1,150kg) ~ 1:30.699
Honda S2000 LM Race Car (485PP, 310HP, 1,050kg) ~ 1:29.578

With everything off.
 
SRT Viper Super Lap: 1:10.000 - Matterhorn Dristelen - 600PP - SH

516PP - 1:09.451 - Viper GTS '02 - SH - FR - 448bhp - 1569kg
 
My Effort
SRT Viper Super Lap: 1:10.000 - Matterhorn Dristelen - 600PP - SH
580PP - 109.879 - Viper SRT10 ACR '08 - SH - FR - 606bhp - 1552kg

Race Car Super Lap: 1:30.000 - Laguna Seca - 500PP - RH

497PP - 129.372 - Elise Race Car 96 - RH - FR - 173bhp - 645kg

And done:P
 
Race Car Super Lap: 1:30.000 - Laguna Seca - 500PP - RH

482PP - 1:29.790 - Peugeot 206 Rally Car '99 - RH - 4WD - 300bhp - 1230kg

So many cars eligible but so few capable. I tried out a few in the 470-480PP range with no success. It's a pretty tight gold time here. Still more to try though.

SRT Viper Super Lap: 1:10.000 - Matterhorn Dristelen - 600PP - SH

551PP - 1:08.756 - Viper GTS R Concept '00 - SH - 498bhp - 1475kg

I had one Viper in my garage and that was the anniversary model. Got gold in it but it was a bit of an ordeal. If ever a car was less suited to a track. The GTS R Concept '00 was much better behaved but still not particularly enjoyable to drive.
 
SRT Viper Super Lap: 1:10.000 - Matterhorn Dristelen - 600PP - SH
572PP - 1:08.701 - Viper GTS 15th Anniv. '13 - SH - FR - 665hp - 1556 kg.

Race Car Super Lap: 1:30.000 - Laguna Seca - 500PP - RH
484PP
- 1:29.876 - Toyota ALTEZZA Touring Car - RH - FR - 300 hp - 1000 kg.
